The Path of Life

In the travels of my life; Through many towns
and cities I went. A lot of people I met in the
path of my life. Some people left good memories.
Others just left pain.
In that world - I learned a lot of things, I learned
to smoke and drink. I also learned other bad things
that maybe I shouldn't have, but they are gone
now and of that I'm glad.
Some people gave me joy, others made me cry,
yet there was one that broke my heart and made
it bleed. The bleeding stopped one day, when
someone came to my life and took the pain away.
At the end of my journey, very tired I returned, to
you my JESUS - I kneel at your feet. Your forgiveness
I ask for all the sins and mistakes that I did.
Today here on my knees, I ask you to clean my soul.
Please take away my sins and bury them in the
bottom of the sea. Show me now a new path where
I can walk with you and be free...

Hello Lucy, thank you for the soup mail... about your poem. love the feeling and pleading in your poem... I pray my new path this year sets me right with God, and one day I wish to be one of them people you visit through your traveling life... always~ LINDA

Dear Lucilla, what a lovely ending, Seeking
Refuge where we all should have done from the beginning.
HE though is eternal and eternal HIS love. Life on the
other hand is like the sea: Either calm or turbulent has
got the same depth. Thank you for the message you pass.
Wonderfully inspired poem!
